Hi Behzad,
you are completely correct :-) there are some analytical estimations, but
for exact match you should do your own calibration.

According to my experience, for uniform particle size, the macroscopic
Poisson's ratio depends only on yade poisson parameter (but not linearly)
and macroacopic Young's modulus is proportional to yade young parameter.
For nonuniform particle sizes I would expect the same trend, but I have no
experience with it..

cheers
Jan
